Straightforward has been revamped in a second edition, with much of the content updated and made more relevant to our ever-changing world. New topics, articles and exercises appear within a fresh new design. All the old teachers' favourites are still there - meaning it will still be a joy to teach with. The format is intuitive and easy to follow for new and busy teachers, while also being adaptable for more experienced teachers. Each unit contains four lessons with a focus on different language functions and skills, and is designed to last around 90 minutes. All lessons are interlinked to promote more memorable learning with the flexibility to pick out key sections to focus on certain language points. All language is clearly signposted and designed so there is great clarity of progression of learning - students can really feel they are getting somewhere.
